What We Offer
Litigation Insight
We provide targeted, strategic advisory support for high-stakes litigation. If your firm is navigating a complex matter with unique public safety or investigative dynamics, we can structure a conflict-vetted engagement tailored to your procedural needs.
-
Specialized consulting for plaintiff and defense counsel handling catastrophic accidents involving vulnerable road users. We bridge the gap between abstract physics and real-world police protocols.
Police Protocol & Investigative Audits: Critical evaluation of scene preservation, witness interview methodology, and initial officer assumptions to locate hidden investigative flaws.
Vulnerable Road User Variables: Advanced analysis of bicycle/pedestrian-specific crash factors, local roadway infrastructure compliance, and visibility mechanics.
Deposition & Subpoena Blueprints: Tailored questioning strategies for responding officers, municipal engineers, and opposing reconstruction experts.
-
High-level consulting for trial firms litigating claims against commercial properties, apartment complexes, parking structures, and institutions following third-party criminal acts.
Crime & Foreseeability & Trend Analysis: Objective audits of historical calls-for-service, local crime statistics, and internal incident reports to establish whether a property owner was on notice of systemic security risks.
Physical Security & CPTED Audits: Evaluating physical infrastructure against rime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) standards, including lighting adequacy, access control, surveillance camera placement, and perimeter integrity.
Security Policy & Guard Management Verification: Reviewing post orders, guard training records, patrol logs, and corporate security policies to pinpoint systemic operational failures or deviations from industry standards.
Engagement and Fee Models
To accommodate the varying cash flow needs and risk profiles of trial law firms, we offer two distinct, fully compliant avenues of engagement across all litigation pillars:
Confidential Billable Advisory (Hourly): Retain us on a standard hourly structure as a non-testifying expert consultant under Pa.R.C.P. 4003.5(a)(3). This model is ideal for rapid, insulated, early-stage case evaluations, police protocol audits, and tactical discovery drafting before a case is filed, keeping all preliminary evaluations strictly shielded from discovery.
Joint Litigation Venture (Contingency Co-Counsel): For high-stakes, catastrophic cases with verified liability potential, we partner with primary counsel as special co-counsel under Pa. RPC 1.5(e). Operating strictly on a risk-free, contingency fee-sharing model, we assume joint professional responsibility to direct the public safety, crash dynamics, or premises security strategy from intake through trial with zero upfront costs to your firm.
